Public Domain Poetry And Stories - What Place Is Besieged? by Walt Whitman Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
What place is besieged, and vainly tries to raise the siege?
Lo! I send to that place a commander, swift, brave, immortal;
And with him horse and foot, and parks of artillery,
And artillery-men, the deadliest that ever fired gun.
